Kimkatya's Kalamitous Kavern Kontaining Krap Kontent

so something thats popped up a loy lately are old people conservative opeds about the benefit of the Traditional Mother/Father family dynamic based on EVIDENCE and various statisticql studies, and what annoys it is that they always seem to forget that when a society id structured around traditional relationships, traditional relationships will probably end up better overall because they started with a head start. its dishonest. You can’t adjust data for context.

I argue statistically for the REAL traditional structure of the grandparents raising children like pre-1960s Japan.
 
“the iraq war wasn’t that bad, actually” is the neoliberal version of “the red scare didn’t cause that much harm, really”
The revisionism around the Iraq War is insane, it wasn't good then, and it still isn't good now. I know the Ukraine War and such has made people point out many westerners moonlighting as "anti-imperialists" are just a dumber version of Antideustch, but that doesn't mean the "respectful moderates" that are all in for people like Bibi, Modi, and Aliyev aren't their own versions of Campists either. And its still a huge indictment that Iraq still hasn't really recovered.

"We had good intentions" no you did not, you were all too happy to send Saddam Hussein poison gas and tell them where to use them, and tried to minimize the backlash when the world noticed the poison gas being used against Kurds and Iranians. Rumsfeld even worked on the task team to help Saddam acquire weapons.

it’s a pretty common british thing by people trying to defend blair’s legacy. there’s no such thing as a leader in a modern liberal democracy with a moral clean slate in foreign policy. governments make too much money off weapon sales for that.

I don't think there is a moral clean slate for any person or group, period. So many people are caught up in camps to get just how fleeting and amoral fopo really is.

Like how many people can admit that Serbia and Israel have been staunch ethnonationalism allies of each other for decades at this point?
 
stock derivatives exist and we all pretend that it’s a completely normal idea to give someone an iou to buy a hypothetical representation of your part ownership of something at a fixed price to sell for a higher price at some point in the future, what the fuck are you people doing. “contemporary art doesn’t mean anything” bitch u trade on the stock market
